Interesting…is that frame compatible with the G44?
Mine has also ate pretty much everything too. I put a Timney trigger in mine….lots of fun!
Out of curiosity I did a search for “Glock 44 15 round magazine”.I wish glock sold 15rd mags for em. Can't ship the pro mag 18's into VT

Ah yes, I remember some time ago now, I found that guys video on YT. I may watch it again but it was a DIY mod to the 10rd mag and I'm pretty sure people generally laud the mod as being reliable but I just wish Promag had stuck to 15 since alot of states impose a 15rd restriction for handguns. I may buy a couple 10rd mags and give it a go, it didn't look terribly complicatedOut of curiosity I did a search for “Glock 44 15 round magazine”.
I found this. I have no idea if this works.

perhaps i should caution people against this although i dont know if it could really be all that hazardous with open windows but after about 2 weeks of regularly shooting from the rig, I wound up with crazy vertigo and stumbling around almost feeling drunk. It may not be an issue but I have to say the place I just moved from had alot of mold and water built up in my residence from a recent natural disaster, could be a result of all things at once...... shoot from your pickup at your own risk though, I definitely caught some fumes but it could have been anything. I was running a 102° fever at the time too so take that for what it's worth
I hope you feel better soon.

Hey I just updated the thread and caught this post. I'm glad you got it sorted out and are happy with your G44. I certainly can't complain about mine more than 10K rounds later. It would normally take me at least a few years with considerable expense to get up to that round count but this has sort of been a side project. It definitely sounds like they were in a CYA mode when the fixed yours up, slide cover plate doesn't track, but mass produced production guns aren't immune to occasional OOS parts and at least in the end, they sorted you out.Thanks for reviving your original thread @DustyGmt .
(That wasn’t sarcasm)
Right after this thread was posted I bought a G44. My Glock 44 was a finicky little PITA! It only consistently fired certain ammunition but standard velocity ammo and bulk ammo just never ran consistently. Accuracy wasn’t there either. One time it would fire to the right. The next time to the left. In June Aafter 1950 rounds of “testing” I decided to send it back to Glock, get the issues addressed and sell the darn thing.
Boy was I surprised when I got it back. The gun literally looked brand new but all the serial numbers were intact. I am pretty sure every internal component was replaced. The slide looked brand new. No copper on the breech. The work order repair note said “Replaced slide cover plate”.
A magical slide cover plate fixed all the issues I was having. Yeah, okay…
My Glock 44 runs like a champ now. From CCI Std Velocity ammo up to hyper velocity ammo it runs great. The floating windage accuracy issue is gone. The worst running ammo in that gun was Federal Auto Match. Why wouldn’t it be? It’s the ammo I have a bunch of and Murphy is an SOB.
Now Fed. Auto Match runs great and is fairly accurate from my G44.
I called Glock to find out what they did exactly and the nice lady I spoke to really couldn’t tell me from what she had in her computer screen other than the changing of the slide cover plate. I asked her to put a note in my account that states “Customer inquired as to the cost and purchase of the new Glock Magical Cover Plates and if there’s a purchase limit?”. She laughed. I don’t know if she made that entry though.
I am very happy with my Glock 44 now. I may just have to keep it after all.
Dusty, I put a Hi Viz fiber optic sight on the front of my gun and left the factory rear. This set up is on all my Glocks except 2 and one of those will be changed soon. It looks kind of like this now:

Well my round count is pretty accurate unto 20,000 rounds fired. I do occasionally give the G44 a good cleaning but most of the time it is just a quick wipe down and lube. I bought mine in February of 2020 and did a lot of shooting with it since I had a good supply of 22lr ammo during the plandemic. I have 4 factory 10 round magazines and 4 ProMag 18 round magazines. At a minimum I will go through all 8 magazines twice per range trip.
It was pretty cold when I went out with the G44 last time, 10° give or take and using vape juice probably hindered it more than helped it. I know when the juice sits outside in my bag on a cold day it is very hard to get it out of the squirt bottle. There's a good chance that if I had used a proper lubricant or some 5w20 like I've been using, the gun will continue.
